I've got this older toshiba satalite pro notebook, it supports either two 5mm type II pc cards or one 10.5 type III. I'd like a wireless card one that supports WPA2 security, since that is what my router uses. I have looked at the usual suspects, linksys, belkin, netgear etc. but the specs all state "up to 128bit WEP". Can anyone recommend a decent one that supports wpa2 as well? Many thanks.

Never mind. I've been reliably told even though the specs of the cheaper belkin card on amazon say it only supports up to 128bit wep it is also compatible with wpa and wpa2 in psk mode which is good enough for me.
